Abstract
A parametric method is proposed for solving a special production - tra nsportation problem with two factories, and the minimum concave cost f low problem on a single source uncapacitated network with a single non linear arc cost. The resulting algorithms are strongly polynomial. The algorithm for the network flow problem is an improved version of an e arlier polynomial algorithm of Guisewite and Pardalos.
